When Di Junlan was pinned down by Murong Jin, he felt a surge of excitement, but his face showed a mixture of confusion and bewilderment...
Wait, wait, isn't the position reversed?
Seeing the bewildered and helpless look on the man's face, Murong Jin chuckled, then raised an eyebrow slightly and sat up on the bed.
“Ah Jin…”
Just as Di Junlan was about to say something, he was pulled up and sat on the bed with Murong Jin.
Before anyone could react, they heard a soft, sweet voice coming from outside.
"Mommy, Mommy, I'm here!!! Open the door! Your little baby is here!"
Di Junlan stood directly to the side, and Murong Jin said, "Come in."
The little guy pushed the door open and came in, dressed in thick clothes, holding a fluffy little toy in his arms.
"Wow, Daddy's here too! Xiaoyu thought Daddy was in the palace."
Upon hearing that address, Murong Jin patted the edge of the bed.
Nan Muyu skipped over and jumped into Murong Jin's arms as soon as she got close.
"Mommy, please."
Murong Jin hugged her and placed her on his lap. "Where's my brother?"
“My brother said he’s not a three-year-old anymore, and he wants to sleep alone.”
Murong Jin chuckled, and Di Junlan also smiled.
Nan Muyu's eyes darted around. "Tonight, can I sleep with Mom and Dad?"
Murong Jin's gaze fell on the man beside her. "Okay."
Nan Muyu looked at the man beside her and secretly winked at him frantically, "Daddy, come here quickly."
This dad is so stupid! They're already in Mom's room, and he doesn't even try to get her to kiss and cuddle...
The bed was large, and Nan Muyu lay in the middle, blinking her big eyes. In the end, she slept with one arm around someone.
Di Junlan's gaze fell on the person beside him. For the first time, he was lying together with A Jin in such a quiet and harmonious way...
Everyone in the capital, young and old, knows that their Empress will marry no one but the Regent...
...
With the rise of girls' education and the inclusion of women in various industries, many people stood up in support... Apart from some older people who said that women shouldn't be in the limelight and couldn't do anything provocative...
The court officials all yielded to the pressure from the regent and His Majesty, so naturally no one else could resist...
"If all the women go to study, who will do the housework?"
"Your arms and legs are broken? You can't live without a woman, can you?"
...
"Your Majesty, you haven't returned to court until almost noon for several days now..."
Emperor Junlan's face was now beaming with joy, and he was in a good mood during court. "Du Cheng, make arrangements for my dowry three months from now."
Others: "..."
"Your Majesty, isn't this a bit inappropriate? How can an emperor marry into another family..."
"Oh? If you're not afraid of the Regent causing you trouble, go to the Regent's residence and talk to him."
The others fell silent.
The customs of Da Cheng are inherently open; apart from a few conservatives, everyone else pursues freedom...
Later, after Murong Jin participated in court politics, much knowledge was unlocked, and there was only convenience, no difficulty...
They each found the job they wanted, one that suited their talents...
"Then, the coronation ceremony..."
"We must also prepare. I am marrying the Regent, and my Empress is named Murong Jin, the eldest daughter of the Prince of Zhenbei's mansion."
"Yes!!!" I understand.
This is a bit of fun between His Majesty and the Regent.
Cultural invasion is a gradual process...
"Sister Qiao'er, are you still writing storybooks?"
Ling Qiao'er closed the book. "Fortunately, I've been writing about patriotism lately..."
"I think the people of Dacheng are still quite simple and honest. Many people are pursuing their dreams and are working hard to achieve them."
Ling Qiao'er: "Many people wanted to participate in the imperial examinations, but because of their families' problems with food and lodging, many people didn't have this opportunity..."
"However, the Regent had arranged a subsidy policy beforehand. In addition to their regular work, they could also study at the school for free, and both men and women could do so."
"Schools for children under six years old are also being established recently, and there are also specialized schools for children aged six to twelve..."
"Start with the basics. If your learning ability improves, you can skip grades..."
Ling Qiao'er knew all this, "Yes, our lives will get better and better!"
...
"Is this imperial examination for children too harsh on them?"
Murong Jin was eating grapes beside him. "Ages 5 to 10 can participate in the imperial examination for children, and those over 10 can participate in the imperial examination."
"However, there are requirements: the county examination, the prefectural examination, the provincial examination, the provincial examination, the metropolitan examination, and the palace examination..."
"Only those who pass the first four can come to the capital to participate in the imperial examination."
"This is a rigorous approach to knowledge; academic work cannot be falsified."
Emperor Lan: "I know. Have someone arrange these things now, and some legal provisions should also be added..."
"Do you think that if I establish a monogamous system, it will infringe on the interests of many nobles?"
Murong Jin raised an eyebrow at him. "Nobility? Can they compare to the power of the two of us?"
Emperor Junlan chuckled, "Indeed, what I excel at is making an example of someone."
"We should also raise awareness about the human trafficking, especially the trafficking of children and women..."
Emperor Junlan: "Okay."
Many laws needed major revisions, so after Emperor Lan returned to the palace, he did not come back for ten consecutive days.
